Anil Murthy said that: “We are all aware of the ability of football clubs to contribute to improving society, and we must not be afraid to assume that responsibility. We have to be social points of references and work as a team, collaborating with public and private entities."

"I am sure that those in charge of football clubs and their foundations feel that our actions are in line with their objective: To contribute to improving society."

"Six months ago, we at the club decided to give a boost to the VCF Foundation project, professionalising it to make it more effective in its mission. In the end, we don't make a distinction between the club and the VCF Foundation. This is 'One Club.'"

Prior to the words by the president of Valencia CF, the attendees were able to enjoy the Mestalla Forever Tour.
